How To Save My Buffer Settings

Hello again, all.

I haven't asked a question in a while, so forgive me for asking one that might seem lame to some of you. If you don't feel like answering, please resist the temptation to tell me to "look it up in the user guide" and, instead, simply ignore this post. I've just spent about twenty minutes trying to find my answer in the guide and would not be here begging if I had found it.

Can someone please just tell me where to save the settings for my buffers in SAW Basic? In all the time I have used SAW with my FocusRite Solo, I have never permanently solved the overrun/underrun errors that pop up all the time. I managed to get SAW running without errors for about a month, but now they are back. I have set my buffers to "6" both In and Out (not even sure what that all means) and I want to make sure it sticks. The "3" setting many of you suggested to eliminate some delay issues I was having just doesn't work for playback.

I know the option to lock in the buffer settings is in the File menu, but which option is it?

Re: How To Save My Buffer Settings

Hello,

I have a copy of Basic 2.2...no manual...but here is the text from the help file:

Preferences FileThe following sub-menu choices are available Preferences File options:
* Open
This option opens an existing Preferences configuration file and re-initializes the program to those settings.
* Save
This option saves the current program setup as a .PRF file. This is handy for saving different configurations or sound card setups for different project types.* Save Default
This option saves the current setup as the default Preferences for when the program starts.
F Use this option each time you change a global setting or option that you wish to retain each time you start the program.
* Clear Default
This clears the default Preferences file and SAWStudioBasic will revert back to its internal defaults.
